Recently I heard an amazing story of human strength. Four soldiers in Afghanistan were riding in a jeep when suddenly they were ambushed. They were on a narrow mountain road and the only way out was to go in the opposite direction, but there wasn’t room to turn the jeep around without going over

I enjoyed watching the Dick Van Dyke show when it was on in the 60’s. The main two characters were Rob and Laura Petrie, played by Dick Van Dyke and Mary Tyler Moore.
In one episode it was very close to time for Laura to deliver their baby. There was a scene where they were going to bed for the

You see, we’ve all heard stories of people who lucked up and found something hidden away in an attic that turned out to be really valuable, and we figure, if it could happen to them, it could happen to us. We hear stories like Ted and Virginia from Arizona. There story was found on Antiques

Air Conditioner.
First house we owned was quite old and a lot of things didn’t work quite right.
Our air conditioner broke every year.
It would cool down the house then, become a heater heat it up, then cool it down.

My family and I were watching America’s Funniest Videos Friday night. There’s clip of a bike race. A guy is approaching the finish line, way out in front. He pauses to raise his hands in victory, and as he does, he wipes out. As he gets back up, some 20 other bikes pass him and he creeps across

2. Where do forest rangers go to "get away from it all"?
3. Why are cigarettes sold in gas stations when smoking is prohibited there?
4. If a cow laughed, would milk
